Earlier today, Judge Richard M. Berman threw out the National Football League’s four-game suspension of New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. To put it mildly, the ruling was a major kick in the nuts for NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.

As Deadspin points out, the judge was not ruling on Brady’s guilt or innocence in regard to the Deflategate scandal. It’s completely possible Tom Brady is guilty as sin. The judge was simply ruling on the NFL’s “investigatory and disciplinary procedures,” which are completely ridiculous.

Here, though, are the three ways the judge ruled that the NFL fucked up:

1. The NFL didn’t properly inform Brady of the punishment he faced, or even what he was accused of.
